In this article, a low-complexity and high-throughput sorted QR decomposition (SQRD)\nfor multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detectors is presented. To reduce the heavy hardware\noverhead of SQRD, we propose an efficient SQRD algorithm based on a novel modified real-value\ndecomposition (RVD). Compared to the latest study, the proposed SQRD algorithm can save the\ncomputational complexity by more than 44.7% with similar bit error rate (BER) performance.\nFurthermore, a corresponding deeply pipelined hardware architecture implemented with the\ncoordinate rotation digital computer (CORDIC)-based Givens rotation (GR) is designed.
